DOCTOR: Which way, do you think?

ZOE: To the right.

DOCTOR: They both look equally unattractive to me.

ZOE: But it must be to the right. I've been working it out as we went along.

JAMIE: Doctor.

DOCTOR: Shush. How?

ZOE: Well, as soon as we avoided the dead ends, it soon fell into a clear pattern. One left, two right, three left, four right and so on. It's a simple arithmetic progression.

JAMIE: Yes, but Doctor.

DOCTOR: Shush, Jamie.

DOCTOR: What it is to have an arithmetical brain. What do you want?

JAMIE: The thread's run out. Now, should we not go back?

DOCTOR: No, you stay here.

JAMIE: Ah.

DOCTOR: And Zoe and I will explore a little further. There must be another way out of this maze and I mean to find it.

The Mind Robber

(The sides of the TARDIS come apart, leaving Jamie and Zoe lying on the console, hanging on grimly as it slowly spins in the blackness.)

ZOE: Jamie, the Doctor!

(Zoe screams, a lot. The Doctor is spinning, eyes closed, as the console disappears into a sudden mist.)
